Make the most of small spaces with a combined study nook and living area

Short on space but in need of a home office? See how simple it is to create a balance between your home office and living space with an integrated study nook.

If, like many Australians, you've found yourself working from home more lately, you're probably wondering how to incorporate your working zone into your living space, without making the room feel crammed. In this episode, you'll see Max' small bedroom and living room transformed into a cosy living area and study nook, perfect for the home office life, with help from Lucy-Glade Wright and a team from Bunnings.

The first task is removing the doors that separate the rooms, to open up the awkward space. The old carpet is being replaced with floorboards and sheer curtains will be installed, to make the most of the natural light. In the study nook, we'll be installing floating shelves to create more storage and adding a feature wall to liven up the space.
